40% of yours. If one bought more at B&N it would be less, down to and including 0.
So tell the truth: that it's a POTENTIAL problem all around for DRMed books, not a Kindle or Amazon exclusive, and that it may never effect you on either side.

So why not tell people to check for the availability of the sort of stuff they expect to buy, and either get a reader that accommodates it, or choose the reader they like best but understand the potential limitations on the books.

But keep lying about how closed the Kindle is and how open the nook is, and darn straight I'll keep correcting the misinformation.

Kobo coupons are great, no argument there.
Note that Kobo is still not the number one ebook store. Perhaps comparison shopping with occasional coupons is just not worth the inconvenience for many people compared to one-click on device shopping? Maybe the issue just isn't all that important to many.

Which has been my point. All along.
